Faux Tin Tile Bunny

Hello My Friends! 

Most of the Craft and Dollar Stores have

some chunky cut outs for Spring!

There are so many ways to decorate these.

I used this bunny cut out because

he can stand on his own-

I also needed one of these tiles from the Dollar Tree.


Have you seen these SELF- ADHESIVE WALL TILES ?

They are made of plastic with a raised 3D design.

They are 12'' x 12'' and  $1.25 each




Easily cut with scissors or utility knife.

I removed the backing adhesive sheet. 

I will not be using it.



I traced the area needed

with a pencil.



Save the scraps-



I used white glue to attach tile to the wood piece.

After the glue dried I cut around the bunny shape.




Then painted the entire bunny with white acrylic paint.

I used a damp cloth to wipe paint off on some areas.

The gray raised areas show through.



I put the bunny on a shelf along with a gingham jar 

that I painted a few years ago.



Here's a tutorial on my Jars, in just about any color!


Gingham Jars


With some of the scrap pieces I was able to

cover a wooden heart-

to hang



and to display in my bathroom



and the roof of a small birdhouse.



These tiles are so easy to use!

I recommend you give them a try.




Thank you for visiting!

  3. Love this! I found some of their thicker eggs but they didn't have the bunnies. Featuring when my party opens!

    1. Carol,
      Sorry you couldn't find a bunny! These tiles were so fun to use. I want to cover a box next. I am really surprised how good it looks close up. You couldn't guess it was plastic! Thank you for the feature! I am so grateful.
      Happy Easter-
